  1. to pay the bills at home? Buy food? If your business just makes it even, other than pleasing trials riders what would the point be?
  2. I have used them with no problems. Mine were the older thicker ones though, the uber thin xc ones are not up to it.
  3. bit of an odd thing to say, even if you are joking.
  4. classic Nick. Nice riding guys, I really want to ride Portsmouth again!
  5. narr, it's just mods I don't like
  6. lol, not sure why I wouldn't like it, 22" wheels does seem like a great size, I would love to try a bike with 22" wheels! The only issues are lack of rims and tires, plus it would be nice to have a frame with geo meant for that size, but no harm in experimenting.
  7. not enough, Rockman seem to charge a high trade price on their stuff which eats into any profits as it would be unfair to charge the "correct" price on a lot of their stuff. Margins on trials stuff is pretty crap in general, especially compared with other industries and even normal MTB stuff.
  8. Those sound like maintenance issues to me. Can't say I found them any flexier than other cranks either.
  9. Glad you like it Matt Bike looks awesome!
  10. conspiracists love a conspiracy
  11. I don't agree with that, sure they are a little heavier, but does 80g make them half as good? I have never snapped a pair of Trialtech cranks and am yet to see any pics of snapped pairs either despite being pretty much the most popular cranks going.
  12. Watched the whole programme last night. Danny's was by far the best of all the edits! The flatland bmx was crap, over edited and badly filmed. The Skater despite NOT being the only important think in skatboarding in 20 years had a fairly good edit, shame he pretty much did the same stuff throughout the whole programme. The Parkour went down a different rout with there vid, it was a bit of a gamble and I don't personally think it paid off, it seemed a bit gimmicky to me. Danny's riding was pretty epic, hopefully it will shut up the people who say he doesn't ride trials.
  13. I heard about a biker gang full of yoofs were going to cause trouble

    Mr Zebra

    some pretty slick riding, very impressive!
  15. I don't know why I like Inpired's so much but yeah, sweet bike! Is there a reason you put the chain over the mech like that?I don't think it looks quite as good plus it reduces the chain wrap around the rear cog.
  16. interesting juxtaposition between you topless with short shorts and the other people using the skatepark in jeans and t shirts. Whoever says trials isn't geeky is lieing
  17. so the forks broke after 8 month? the forks have a 3 month warranty? He is unhappy they are not getting replaced? People seem to forget what the warranty actually means. The warranty is against defects in the material or manufacturing. They were obviously made right to last 8 months. Forks will always eventually break and if you get lighter forks like the Viz ones, they will break faster.

    Brakeless Mod

    [/media myself riding brakeless stock
  19. riding those sections in the rain!! Pretty incredible!
  20. Not sure I agree with that logic haha Bike looks pretty sweet for £300, looks strange without a seat, but it's better than nothing
  21. I bet the guy doing the drum-roll was getting annoyed he took so long too
